Now I haven't noticed any damage to the buffer itself on either end besides for a few nicks around the outer edges of the area that's exposed to the bolt carrier. Based on what I've accumulated from reading these boards, any damage to the buffer would essentially result from an over-gassed system and the buffer is moving too fast.
Knowing that my setup works with that variety so far, should I continue to use the H2 buffer?
